Adults Worse Than Teenagers For Texting And Driving

As anyone who pays automobile insurance premiums knows, the stereotype
is that adults are safer drivers than teenagers. When it comes to texting
and driving, however, adults are actually worse than teenagers. According
to a survey done by AT&T, 49% of adults admit to texting and driving,
compared to the 43% of teenagers who admit to doing so. Texting and driving
is an especially dangerous form of distracted driving, because it takes
the driver’s eyes, hands and mind off the road. Read more about
the texting and driving survey at the CBS 58 website here.
